Random Factoid #15

12 08 2009

When you buy tickets from the automatic ticket machine at my favorite movie theater (see Random Factoid #3), the tickets are not the same height as the ones in my ticket collection.  The ones I prefer look like this:

The taller ones look like this:


When I went to see “The Hangover” back in June, Edwards refused to let my 17-year-old friend buy me a ticket to the movie because it was rated R.  I then marched over to the automated ticket booth and bought my own, battling my hatred for the tall tickets.  When it printed, I made my friend switch with me because her ticket would fit better in my ticket collection.

Perhaps I haven’t read all the factoids to get the answer to my own question but how many movie stubs do you have? What percentage of all movies you’ve seen do you calculate that to be?

I can tell you that there are one or two we might have seen together (long, long ago) for which you don’t have stubs. Let me apologize and admit that I feel personally responsible. 😛

I haven’t counted the exact number of stubs, but I think I am at 13 pages now.
